A1003 – A1009 A series of service plates in the Edale shape with Ellis centres. Above are the cobalt, maroon, green and salmon versions. The last image is of a plate with a golden fawn ground which is not listed in the pattern book. Described as having a sanded gold and brown printed border below the rim, this does not appear in any of these examples. I presume that it was decided that the plates looked better with just a line and dentil. A1003 was gilt by Constance Clark. Do see her blog page.

A1010 Flowered Border

A1012 Windsor

A1017

A1018

A1010 – Burford shape plate with the Cotswold (Capper Rataud) litho border. Gold edge. This is a version of A615 “Flowered Border” but on the Burford shape. A1012 – “Windsor” Burford shape teacup and saucer with posie litho sprays scattered over the embossment. The roses are hand painted. Very easily confused with A945 “Ashby” which has a single posie spray. A1017 – A Vine shape plate with scattered posie sprays as “Windsor”. The roses are also hand painted and there is a gold edge.

A1018 – A1062 A series of eleven different patterns with four ground variations – cobalt, maroon, Montreal green and salmon. These mostly appear on teacups and saucers in the Elizabeth shape or on coffee cups and saucers in the Chelsea/Ely shape. I have also seen bread and butter plates and a teapot. Most of these have been acquired from the US or Canada, and I suspect therefore that this range was aimed returning servicemen. Decorated ware was not readily available in the UK because of the Board of Trade restrictions on sales in the home market which ended in 1952.

A1067 Heraldic Blue

A1067 Heraldic Blue Variant

A1068 Heraldic Maroon

A1066 – Teacup and saucer in the Heraldic shape and the pattern is also entitled “Heraldic” It was produced in white and gold and in three colour variations, blue, red and green. It was available in both dinner ware and tea ware. Personal monograms or crests could be added (see UK Commissions for examples). A1066 Variant – White and gold Heraldic with the addition of a Garnett centre and St James gold sprays. A1067 – (Mazarine) blue version. A1067 Variant – Flower spray added. A1068 – Heraldic Maroon. The gilding on the embossment took about three hours to apply by hand on a single plate - (Betty Wherry 2017). It is therefore difficult to see how this pattern could now be produced commercially.

A1081 – “Royal Bouquet” Shown as a series of small flower sprays arranged in panels around the rim of a plate, I have yet to find an example, but the same sprays appear on the above image of the bottle opener.

The birds and flowers were then painted to prevent the ground from adhering in these areas. The maroon ground was then applied up to the embossment and the pattern overprinted in raised colour.
